Within the secret underworld of espionage, every agent lives on the knife’s edge. Will today be the day when your identity is exposed by the spotlight, or can you remain safely hidden in the shadows?

Chasing Shadows is a trick avoidance game where players draft which suit they must follow with from a dwindling pool of cards. Be sure to limit the next player's options, and you might force them to win the trick.

Taking cards and scoring points is bad, but players can cleverly plan to take specific cards that will make their previous points disappear.

The player with the lowest score after three rounds is the winner.

Miles ★★★★☆

Setup is quicker than I expected for a hidden-identity game, and the bluffing gets tense once the spotlight mechanic kicks in. Knife’s-edge is right—one wrong guess and your cover’s blown. Solid pick for game nights, though I wish the rounds felt a bit less random at the end.

Ella ★★★☆☆

The spy theme is fun and the hidden-identity mechanic keeps everyone on edge, but the rulebook feels a bit dense for what is otherwise a quick session. We had to pause a few times mid-game to double-check how the spotlight phase works. Still, it’s a decent pick for a group that likes deduction, just
